Due to the security reason, from this versionNotepad++ will load plugins only from <NPP_INST_DIR>\plugins\. In the case of installer, Notepad++ is installed in %ProgramFiles%\Notepad++\ - plugins are loaded from %ProgramFiles%\Notepad++\plugins\ instead of %ProgramData%\Notepad++\plugins\ in the previous version. This change has no impact on current loading behaviour of portable version. Sorry for the inconvenience regarding this change - I believe there's no more modification concerning the plugins location in the future.
